Bit 0 - Timing Marker
This bit-field is set to “0” to indicate that the timing
source is traceable to a Primary Reference Clock.
Otherwise, this bit-field is set to “1”.
6.1.1.5 The Network Operator (NR) Byte
The NR byte or the GC byte can be configured to
transport LAP-D Message frame octets from the
LAPD Transmitter to the LAPD Receiver (of the Re-
mote Terminal Equipment) at a data rate of 64kbps (1
byte per E3 frame).
If the user opts not to use the NR byte to transport
these LAPD Message frames, then the Transmit E3
Framer block will read in the contents of the TxNR
Byte Register (Address = 0x37), and insert this value
into the NR byte-field of each Outbound E3 frame.
The Receive E3 Framer block will read in the contents
of the NR byte-field within each incoming E3 frame
and will write it into the RxNR Byte register. Conse-
quently, the user can determine the value of the NR
byte, within the most recently received E3 frame by
reading the Rx NR Byte Register (Address = 0x1A).
6.1.1.6 The General Purpose Communica-
tions Channel (GC) Byte
The NR byte or the GC byte can be configured to
transport LAPD Message frames from the LAPD
Transmitter to the LAPD Receiver (of the Remote Ter-
minal Equipment) at a data rate of 64kbps (1 byte per
E3 frame).
If the user opts not to use the GC byte to transport
these LAPD Message frames, then the Transmit E3
Framer block will read in the contents of the Tx GC
Byte Register (Address = 0x35), and insert this value
into the GC byte-field of each Outbound E3 frame.
The Receive E3 Framer block will read in the contents
of the GC byte-field, within each incoming E3 frame,
and will write it into the RxGC Byte register. Conse-
quently, the user can determine the value of the GC
byte, within the most recently received E3 frame, by
reading the Rx GC Byte register (Address = 0x1B).
6.2 THE TRANSMIT SECTION OF THE XRT72L56 (E3
MODE OPERATION)
When the XRT72L56 has been configured to operate
in the E3, ITU-T G.832 Mode, the Transmit Section of
the XRT72L56 consists of the following functional
blocks.
• Transmit Payload Data Input Interface block
• Transmit Overhead Data Input Interface block
• Transmit E3 Framer block
• Transmit HDLC Controller block
• Transmit LIU Interface block
Figure 155 presents a simple illustration of the Trans-
mit Section of the XRT72L56 Framer IC.
